Ranji Trophy: Badoni Slams Second Successive Ton, Saranshs Seven-for Puts MP On Top
JSCA International Stadium: Batting all-rounder Ayush Badoni continued his rich vein of form by hitting a second consecutive hundred, while India off-spinner Saransh Jains seven-wicket haul gave Madhya Pradesh firm control on day one of the third-round Ranji Trophy matches on Monday. Fresh from a career-best 217 against Gujarat, Badoni struck an unbeaten 106 off 122 balls, laced with 11 fours and two sixes, to take Delhi to 309/5 against Jharkhand at the JSCA International Stadium in Ranchi. Badoni, 26, previously hit 205 against the same opponents in the 2024/25 season. A chanceless knock, Badonis sixth first-class hundred, anchored Delhis recovery. He found a reliable ally in all-rounder Sumit Mathur, who was unbeaten on 50, as the pair put together an unbroken 128-run stand for the sixth wicket. Mathur had a lucky escape on 36 when he was caught at long-on, only to be recalled because Anukul Roy had overstepped. At Holkar Stadium in Indore, Saranshs 7-40 helped Madhya Pradesh bowl Bihar out for just 99. The hosts, still looking for their first win of the season after two draws, then reached 261/3 with a lead of 162, after bowling out Bihar for 99. Wicketkeeper-batter Saksham Purohit was unbeaten on 113, and his opening partner Yash Dubey made 84. At the BKC Ground, Mumbai also made a strong start against Haryana at home after being put in to bat first. Angkrish Raghuvanshi made 114 off 180 balls with 13 fours and a six, while Musheer Khan scored 109 off 185 balls with 12 fours and a six. The pair added 208 runs for the second wicket to steer Mumbai to 290/3 at stumps. Defending champions Jammu and Kashmir, also in search of their first win, were frustrated by Priyanshu Moliya at the Reliance Ground in Vadodara. Moliyas patient unbeaten 113 lifted Baroda to 259/6 after they had slipped to 197/6 at one stage. Vidarbha, who have two wins so far, had Goa in trouble at 84/6 after Nachiket Bhute ripped through the top order with four wickets. But Darshan Misal and Yash Kasvankar then struck half-centuries and shared a stand of 104 runs for the seventh wicket to help the visitors reach 204/8. On a rain-hit day, Pondicherry reduced Uttar Pradesh to 67/4. In Mysuru, Karnataka recovered from a sluggish start to bowl Tripura out for 194 at the SDNR Wadiyar Stadium. The hosts, who sprang a surprise by leaving out pacers Vidwath Kaverappa and Abhilash Shetty to accommodate spinners Shikhar Shetty and Ritesh Bhatkal, failed to make use of the new ball as Tripura moved comfortably to 88/2 in the first session. Left-arm spinner Shikhar then claimed his third first-class five-wicket haul, while pacer Manvanth Kumar took three. Karnataka lost Mayank Agarwal early and were 10 for one at stumps. At the DVR Ground in Mulapadu, Chhattisgarhs spinners made full use of a helpful pitch to bowl Andhra out for 231. Veteran off-spinner Jayant Yadav led the way with 4-75, while Ajay Mandal and Dharmendrasinh Jadeja took three and two wickets respectively. In reply, Chhattisgarh lost Ayush Pandey early when he was run out going for an unnecessary quick single. Captain Anuj Tiwary and Mayank Verma then negotiated the final half-hour to take the visitors to 35/1. Wicketkeeper-batter Prabhsimran Singh laid the foundation with 81 off 126 balls, hitting nine fours and a six, while fifties from Salil Arora and Ramandeep Singh then guided Punjab to 289/6 against Hyderabad in Secunderabad. Denish Das made 90 off 165 balls, with 14 fours, to take Assam to 235/6 against Saurashtra in Rajkot. For the hosts, veteran pacer Jaydev Unadkat picked up three wickets, while Ravindra Jadeja and Arth Yadav took one wicket each. In Thiruvananthapuram, where only 50 overs were possible due to rain, Kerala reduced Bengal to 172/6, with Aditya Sarwate taking three wickets and Nedumankuzhy Basil two scalps. Maharashtra bowled out Gujarat for 233 in Pune, with Siddhesh Veer taking four wickets, while Rajvardhan Hangargekar and Vicky Ostwal claimed three apiece. Maharashtra were 24/1 when stumps were called. Services off-spinner Pulkit Narang returned 6-47, his second five-wicket haul of the season, to bowl Odisha out for 194 in Bhubaneswar. The visitors were 13/0 at stumps. Tamil Nadu bowled out Railways for 184 in Chennai, with R Sai Kishore and Sonu Yadav taking three wickets each, but slipped to 71/3 till stumps arrived. Devendra Singh Boras six-wicket haul helped Uttarakhand dismiss Rajasthan for 272 in Dehradun despite skipper Kartik Sharmas 73. Uttarakhand were 18/0 at stumps. Centuries from Arjun Azad and Nehal Pajni powered Chandigarh past 350 for the loss of three wickets against Himachal Pradesh. In the Plate group, Meghalayas Ajay Duhan (167) and Kishan Lyngdoh (144) shared an unbroken 308-run stand for the second wicket as their side piled up 385/2 against Mizoram in Nadiad. Tamil Nadu bowled out Railways for 184 in Chennai, with R Sai Kishore and Sonu Yadav taking three wickets each, but slipped to 71/3 till stumps arrived. Devendra Singh Boras six-wicket haul helped Uttarakhand dismiss Rajasthan for 272 in Dehradun despite skipper Kartik Sharmas 73. Uttarakhand were 18/0 at stumps.

Bihar Deputy CM Vijay Sinha Slams Congress Over Unparliamentary Remarks on PM Modi
Coming out in defence of Congress national president Mallikarjun Kharge amid an escalating political row over his remarks concerning Prime Minister Narendra Modi, Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) national working President and Leader of Opposition (LoP) in Bihar, Tejashwi Yadav on Monday accused the ruling NDA of making a mountain out of a molehill to distract from its governance failures. Speaking to reporters in Patna, Tejasvi asserted that the ruling dispensation is deliberately hyping non-issues because it has failed to deliver on core developmental promises such as employment, healthcare, and education for the people of Bihar. A mountain is being made out of a molehill. Those in government are paying no attention to education, healthcare, livelihoods, irrigation, addressing grievances, or taking concrete action; they are doing nothing for the people of Bihar. Crime and corruption are on the rise, yet no action is being taken. Ever since this government was formed, nothing of substanc...
RJD seeks strict safeguards for Bihar MLC vote counting, fears vote theft
Digital Desk | Patna, Oct 26 (IANS) The Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) has demanded strict transparency and safeguards during the counting of votes for four graduate and four teachers constituencies of the Bihar Legislative Council. A party delegation led by MLA Bhai Virendra submitted a memorandum to Chief Electoral Officer Vinod Singh Gunjial on Monday, seeking guidelines on 10 points to prevent possible irregularities. The memorandum cited the 2024 Chandigarh mayoral election and stressed the need to preserve ballot papers in their original condition and ensure impartial decisions on the validity of votes. Copies were also sent to the Election Commission of India and the commissioners of the respective divisions. The RJD demanded a ban on violet pens and similar writing instruments inside counting centres. It also called for a prohibition on adding marks such as ticks, crosses or lines to ballot papers and sought uniform criteria for determining valid and invalid votes across all counting tables. The party further urged officials to examine suspicious ballot papers before counting first-preference votes. It called for authorised agents to be allowed to raise objections, continuous monitoring through CCTV cameras and videography, and the declaration of results only after reconciling valid and invalid ballot papers and verifying result sheets. The memorandum also sought clear accountability from counting officials and a mechanism to ensure immediate action on complaints. The delegation included former MLA Rajendra Kumar Ram, Ranvijay Sahu, Dr Sanjeev Kumar Singh, the RJD candidate for the Patna Teachers constituency, Dr Anwar Alam and Mukund Singh. Speaking to the media, Bhai Virendra said the party had conveyed its concerns about possible vote theft to the Election Commission and raised several important issues. He said the Chief Electoral Officer had assured the delegation that the counting process would be transparent and conducted in accordance with the Commissions guidelines. However, Bhai Virendra said concerns about possible vote theft persisted. He expressed confidence that the RJD would win all eight seats. Dr Sanjeev Kumar also alleged that some officials had previously faced questions over their conduct and that cases related to irregularities had been registered against them. He demanded that officials facing such allegations should not be assigned counting duties. The counting of votes is being closely watched, with the RJD insisting that strict adherence to electoral rules is essential to ensure a fair and credible outcome.
Bihar govt asks Neelam Devi to vacate official residence in Patna by Nov 25
Digital Desk | Patna, Oct 26 (IANS) The building construction department of the Bihar government has directed former MLA Neelam Devi, wife of Mokama MLA Anant Singh, to vacate her government-allotted residence in Patna by November 25, 2026, following the cancellation of her nomination to the State-Level 20-Point Programme Implementation Committee. A formal notice was issued to Neelam Devi by the Joint Secretary-cum-Estate Officer, asking her to vacate Residence No. 01 on Mall Road and complete the required departmental formalities. The residence was allotted to her through departmental office order No. 73, dated May 19, 2026, when she served as a member of the State-Level Programme Implementation Committee with the status of a Deputy Minister. However, under notification No. 578 issued by the Cabinet Secretariat Department on October 26, her nomination to the committee was cancelled with immediate effect. The government has subsequently initiated the process of reclaiming the residence. The notice cites the Patna Central Pool Rules, 1986. Under Rule 11(2)(1), a person is permitted to retain an official residence for one month after the termination of the position or service on which the allotment was based. Accordingly, Neelam Devi has been directed to vacate the premises by November 25. Meanwhile, Purnea MP Pappu Yadav has criticised the BJP and the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) over the developments, accusing them of following a use-and-throw approach in politics. He questioned the treatment of several political figures, including Anant Singh, Anand Mohan, Dinesh Ji, Ajay Mandal and Girdhari Yadav. Yadav said political parties were entitled to take disciplinary action against MLAs and MPs who violated party rules, but stressed that the same standards should apply to everyone. He argued that there should be no double standards in enforcing party discipline. Referring to statements by Anant Singh concerning Ashok Chaudhary and Samrat Choudhary, Pappu Yadav said the Mokama MLA had raised questions about the government's survival and alleged betrayal. Yadav reiterated his own criticism of the government and claimed that Anant Singh's concerns were proving justified. On Saturday, the Janata Dal (United) expelled Anant Singh and Neelam Devi from the party for six years, citing alleged anti-party activities. In a statement, Bihar JD(U) president Umesh Singh Kushwaha announced the termination of Anant Singh's primary membership with immediate effect. The governments latest notice marks a further development following the partys disciplinary action against the couple.

Declining standard of language in political discourse: Shiv Sena-UBT, RJD on Kharge's 'baap' remarks
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Oct 26 (IANS) Shiv Sena-UBT and Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leaders on Monday criticised the remarks made by Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge during a programme in Patna, even as they questioned the standards of political discourse and called for greater restraint in the language used by political leaders. The controversy erupted following Kharge's address at a Congress event in Patna on Sunday, organised to mark the birth anniversary of Bihar's first Chief Minister, Sri Krishna Singh. During the programme, a person in the audience reportedly interrupted Kharge, saying that Prime Minister Narendra Modi would not leave power. Responding to the interruption, Kharge said, Modi ka baap bhi jayega (Even Modi's father will have to go). The Congress President reportedly repeated the remark several times, triggering a political controversy and drawing criticism over the language used while referring to the Prime Minister. Reacting to the controversy, Shiv Sena-UBT leader Priyanka Chaturvedi said the continuously declining standard of language in political discourse was unfortunate. Speaking to IANS, Chaturvedi said: The continuously declining standard of language used by everyone in politics is unfortunate. But at the same time, what are the pressing issues in the country today? The country's issues are inflation, corruption, vote theft, and many challenges faced by the youth that are being ignored. This is once again an issue meant to distract attention. She expressed hope that political parties would exercise restraint while making statements and expressing their views, stressing that family members who had no role in politics should not be dragged into political disputes. I would repeat that dragging mothers, fathers, sisters, daughters, or children, who have nothing to do with politics, into political matters is completely wrong, she said. Meanwhile, RJD MP Manoj Jha also criticised the use of such language but questioned what he described as selective outrage over controversial remarks made by political leaders. Speaking to IANS, Jha said: No one can support this kind of language. I am observing the outrage, but why is this outrage so selective? When remarks such as 'Congress ki vidhwa', 'Jersey cow', references to the 'mangalsutra', 'they will take away your buffaloes', and 'they will perform mujra' are made, should there not be outrage or anger then? Jha said he had already submitted a written request in Parliament for a discussion on the standards of language used by both the ruling party and the Opposition. I am saying it again today through you: there should be a two-day discussion in Parliament on what the dignity and standards of language used by both the ruling party and the Opposition should be. It cannot be that there is outrage today and silence tomorrow. That does not seem right, he said. Referring to what he described as a pretence of purification staged against Kharge himself in Uttarakhand's Haldwani, he said he had not witnessed similar outrage on that occasion. When a pretence of purification was staged against Kharge himself, I did not see this outrage. This is not appropriate, the RJD MP said.

Derogatory language against PMs parents will not be tolerated, will protest: Sanjay Saraogi
Digital Desk | Patna, Oct 26 (IANS) Bihar BJP President, Sanjay Saraogi, said on Monday that using derogatory language for the parents of the Prime Minister isnt the right way to do politics and that the masses will not forgive it. He added that he and other leaders of the BJP will protest against it at all main cities of the nation. Speaking to IANS, Saraogi reacted to Congress President Mallikarjun Kharges remarks about Prime Minister Narendra Modi. Using abusive, street-level language against the Prime Ministers late father, Damodardas Mulchand Modi, is something the people of the country and Bihar cannot tolerate under any circumstances, he said. Using derogatory words against his late mother and father, calling him a merchant of death, using terms like neech, and mocking his humble background are unacceptable to the people of the country and Bihar, Saraogi said. Controversy erupted after Mallikarjun Kharge lost his cool and made an objectionable remark on Prime Minister Narendra Modi, at a Congress event in Bihar's capital Patna, prompting fierce counter from the BJP. Kharge's controversial comment came in response to a person in the crowd, who was heard shouting Modi nahin jaayega (Modi won't go/lose power) to which Kharge said, Modi ka baap bhi jayega (Even PM Modi's father will have to go), repeating it not once but thrice. Subsequently, the man was surrounded by Congress workers, who thrashed him before throwing him out of the venue. The heated exchange took place during the 139th birth anniversary celebration of Shri Krishna Singh, Bihar's first Chief Minister, in Patna. Bihar Minister Ram Kripal Yadav described Kharge's remarks as unfortunate and claimed they reflected the thinking of the Congress party and its President. Congress national president Kharge's objectionable remarks about PM Modi yesterday were extremely unfortunate. This reflects the thinking of the Congress party, Rahul Gandhi and its president. This is the culture of the Congress party, which is why the party has already been finished, Yadav said. He further questioned the use of such language in political discourse, saying that differences of opinion could be expressed respectfully without resorting to personal attacks. I understand that you can oppose anyone using dignified language, but resorting to abuse or making such remarks raises questions about political ethics, he said, adding that such statements were detrimental to the standards of Indian politics.
Defence Minister Rajnath Singh on Monday criticised Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge over his remark about the late father of Prime Minister Narendra Modi, expressing shock and hurt and accusing the Congress of defending the statement instead of expressing regret. The controversy erupted during an address by Mallikarjun Kharge at the 139th birth anniversary celebrations of Bihar's first Chief Minister, Dr Krishna Singh, in Patna. A commotion broke out when an attendee in the gathering interrupted Kharge by stating that PM Modi would not go anywhere, prompting the Congress president to retort from the stage, Modi ka baap bhi jayega (Even Modi's father will have to go). Speaking to the media, Singh said Kharge's remark had hurt the sentiments of crores of people and raised questions about the political culture of the Congress.
Hindu Sena seeks FIR against Kharge over baap remark
Digital Desk | New Delhi, Oct 26 (IANS) Hindu Sena National President Vishnu Gupta has filed a complaint with the Delhi Police seeking registration of an FIR against Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge over his controversial remarks about Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his late father at a public event in Patna. In a complaint addressed to the Commissioner of Police at the Delhi Police Headquarters on Monday, Gupta alleged that Kharge made abusive personal comments about the Prime Minister and his family during a public programme. Gupta, who identified himself as the national president of Hindu Sena and a resident of Madhu Vihar in New Delhi, urged the police to register an FIR and initiate legal action against the Congress chief. In his complaint, Gupta stated that Kharge had used foul language, including the words Modi ka baap, which he described as unacceptable in public life. He further claimed that videos of the incident were being circulated widely on television channels and social media, adding that the remarks had hurt his sentiments and those of millions of people. The complainant alleged that such language against the Prime Minister could create anger and tension in society and potentially affect public peace and law and order. As a responsible citizen and head of Hindu Sena, I cannot ignore this open disrespect of a constitutional post, Gupta stated in the complaint. He requested the Delhi Police to register an FIR against Kharge for his alleged abusive remarks and take strict legal action in accordance with the law. The complaint comes amid a political controversy over Kharge's remarks during a Congress event in Patna on Sunday, where he was addressing a programme organised to mark the birth anniversary of Bihar's first Chief Minister, Sri Krishna Singh. Earlier, BJP leader Krishna Kumar, a member of the party's state working committee, had also filed a complaint against Kharge at Patna's Kotwali police station over the controversial remark. In his complaint, Kumar sought an investigation into the statement made by the Congress president during the programme at Bapu Sabhagar. He said he learnt about the alleged remark through television news coverage and was deeply hurt by it. Kumar argued that derogatory comments about an individual's family on a public platform were a sensitive matter and stressed the need to maintain dignity and mutual respect in public life. He urged the police to examine news reports, video footage and other available evidence to establish the exact words used by Kharge and the context in which they were spoken. The controversy erupted during Kharge's address when a person in the audience reportedly interrupted him, saying that Prime Minister Modi would not leave power. Responding to the interruption, Kharge said, Modi ka baap bhi jayega (Even Modi's father will have to go), repeating the remark several times and triggering a political row. Videos of the incident reportedly showed Congress workers confronting and assaulting the person who had interrupted the speech.
The RJD MP had also written an open letter to Bihar Chief Minister Samrat Choudhary, asking whether the notice issued on behalf of Kundan Krishnan, DGP (Special Task Force) had the governments approval?

JD-U is finished, won't win 'even 10 seats': Expelled MLA
Mokama MLA Anant Singh, recently expelled from the Janata Dal (United) for six years, has announced his intention to form his own political party. Singh launched a scathing attack on the JD(U) leadership, claiming the party is finished and will struggle in future elections, though he maintained cordial personal ties with Bihar Chief Minister Nitish Kumar.

RJD MP questions 'chain of command' on defamation notice in Bharat Tiwari case
Digital Desk | Patna, Oct 25 (IANS) RJD MP Sudhakar Singh on Sunday argued that the chain of command was roken in the Rs 5 crore defamation suit against him by senior Bihar IPS officer Kundan Krishnan over his remarks surrounding the death of Bhojpur youth Bharat Bhushan Tiwari in an encounter and an alleged incident involving a teenage girl in Jamui. The MP also asserted that he will seek an interpretation of the notice from the Supreme Court. Sudhakar Singh had publicly alleged that senior police officials, including Krishnan, who was heading the STF at the time of the June 17 incident, should be held accountable, calling for an inquiry into the leadership rather than limiting action to lower-rank personnel. The notice alleges that the RJD MP's statements were baseless and damaged Krishnans public image and professional reputation. Speaking to IANS, Sudhakar Singh said: First, under the Service Act of the Constitution, they do not have the authority to issue a notice to me. Second, I have asked the Chief Minister whether he granted permission to file a case against me. Third, when the Bihar government has an Advocate General, why was a notice issued to me through a private lawyer? Also, Kundan Krishnan did not sign the notice, so it remains suspicious whether he issued it or someone else did. These are the questions, and I hope the Chief Minister will reply soon; otherwise, we will go to court, he said. Moreover, the RJD MP questioned how an in-service officer could issue a notice questioning an elected representative. Emphasising that Constitutional interpretation is done by the Supreme Court, he said: The question here is that a constitutional crisis has arisen: can a junior officer issue a notice to his senior officer? The chain of command has been broken; democracy also functions through a chain of command. Maintaining that while democracy operates through votes, he noted that the executive branch functions through a chain of command. In this command system, how can a person ranked at 28th issue a notice to someone seated higher up at the 7th rank? We will seek an interpretation of this from the Supreme Court, Sudhakar Singh said. Further, the RJD MP accused Krishnan of possessing undisclosed property and illegal wealth disproportionate to his known sources of income. When I looked at the details of his property, I saw that he purchased 16 acres and 88 decimals of land in Kaimur, the details of which he has not yet disclosed. The properties he possesses are worth nearly hundreds of crores. I have a separate account of his illegal wealth, which I will present later. After all, for someone who earned Rs 4 to 5 crore in salary throughout this entire service career and incurred expenses of Rs 2 to 3 crore, how was property worth hundreds of crores generated from those remaining Rs 2 to 2.5 crore? he asked.
